Description

This was taken when I was working as a'speaking extra' on an historical Irish T.V. show. As I'm half Spanish I was one of the bad guys and being 6'' tall and strongly built I was an ideal opponent for the hero to take on and naturally kill!....still the money was welcome and maybe some other time I might return the favor. I had been seriously considered for the part of the leader of the 'baddies' but while I suited the part the director thought I looked a little too 'thoughful' and not savage enough....if he only knew! My father was from San Sabastion in Spain who's name was Diago Zabrorra so I choose his real name rather than the name he used to sound more Irish...McCaffrey....after a week in the sun I'd never pass for an Irishman! At age 50 I'm under no illusions as to my future roles, but I'm not aging too badly and there are plenty of charactor roles out there for an ol' guy who keeps himself fit and has a pretty offbeat sense of humour!
